: Cavalry Charge!
Chapter 1387: Cavalry Charge!
The shadows, who were flexible and agile, with tricky and formidable attacks, and who could even cooperate with each other, were thrown into chaos and showed flaws the moment the unknown strong interference came.
The ZAFT pilot who faced the shadow head-on felt very lucky. He also acted decisively, taking advantage of the opponent's confusion and destroying all the shadows in front of him together with his teammates.
Especially after the Iron Men, Iron Soldiers and some Iron Generals who served as the core of the vanguard arrived at the front line, the front line that had been somewhat chaotic due to the Phantom equipped with an AI system gradually stabilized.
However, the strong interference from unknown origin seemed to make no distinction between friend and foe.
Although they successfully regained control of the battlefield, in reality, the ZAFT fleet and MS units, which had lost their communication capabilities, had a tendency to fight on their own.
"Diego? Shihe? Tsk. Even our communications were disrupted? Who on earth is interfering with this battlefield?"
Isaac tried everything but couldn't contact Diego and Shihe through radio signals.
Fortunately, Shihe seemed to be aware of the current situation and took the initiative to move closer to the Freedom Gundam, which made Izaak breathe a sigh of relief.
But Isaac saw that the MS team composed of Iron Men and Iron Soldiers that passed by from the side actually formed a formation tacitly, and cooperated with another MS team composed of Iron Soldiers and Iron Men not far away, and launched an attack on the chaotic Phantom.
"There is no interference with the MS in East Asia?"
Isaac narrowed his eyes slightly, but he couldn't be sure of this speculation.
As ZAFT's trump card, Isaac knew that even in the case of interference, he could still rely on tacit cooperation to offset a certain degree of combat power reduction caused by communication interference.
However, the cooperation between the two MS teams before them could not be achieved in the absence of communication.
The same was true for the Shadow Fleet on the other side.
After a quick check, the Shadow Fleet's CIC looked at the commander nervously.
"The Shadow Network Thinking System is offline. We have encountered strong interference from unknown sources!"
The commander asked back with a serious expression.
"Interference? Are they the neutron jammers spread by those monsters?"
"No! Not really. No more neutron jammers were found in this area. The interference came from other directions."
"Is it those monsters from ZAFT? No, that's impossible. Could it be East Asia?!"
This speculation was overturned by the commander on the spot.
If it were East Asia, it would be impossible to behave like this.
Judging from their performance in the last war, if it was really East Asia's plan, I'm afraid that when the Shadow is activated, they will be wiped out with a force as powerful as thunder.
But if it’s not East Asia, who else could it be?
Capable of launching such a large-scale battlefield disruption without making a sound.
"Prepare the laser signal to activate Shadow's killing mode."
No matter how much I think about it, I can't solve the current situation.
The only thing that can be done is to restore the combat power of the shadow that has fallen into chaos.
"Yes! Understood!"
The next second, a laser signal flashed continuously at a certain frequency, and the shadow in a state of confusion suddenly changed. When a bright red light burst out from under its translucent mask, a terrifying wave suddenly erupted from its body, catching the surrounding human pilots off guard. They were unable to dodge and were hit one after another.
Broken arms and legs are considered minor injuries.
Some ZAFT pilots didn't even have the chance to call for help before they were pierced through the cockpit cover by the sudden outburst of the Shadow with their bare hands, killing them instantly.
"boom!"
"boom!"
Various types of MS including King, Zaku Phantom, Zaku Warrior, etc. were damaged.
Seeing this, Isaac didn't bother to cooperate with East Asia's MS troops, but turned his guns directly to provide fire support for his subordinates who were unable to react in time.
At the same time, the East Asian MS troops, who had been on guard for a long time, pushed the output of their machines to the limit.
The moment those special metal heat dissipation threads unfolded like a cloak was the moment when the East Asian MS troops launched their full-scale attack.
Under the leadership of the Iron Soldiers, teams of three with Iron Men as the main body attacked everywhere, like sharp swords, cutting apart these shadows that had activated the killing mode, and forcibly creating almost independent spaces around them.
And at the moment these independent spaces were formed, the small number of Iron Generals deployed their weapons and called out the names of the surrounded shadows.
The flames of the explosions lit up one after another, causing the MA troops who had just completed the first round of supply not far away to try to take advantage of the opportunity when Shadow activated the killing mode and dispersed the ZAFT fleet to launch another fatal sniper attack on the civilian ships to feel a chill.
In their understanding, once the killing mode is activated, these shadows will transform into terrifying killing machines and fight with the enemy to death until their bodies are completely crushed.
But, the East Asian MS troops were able to suppress the Phantom that had activated the killing mode so easily?!
This is simply incredible.
Just as an iron man swung his beam sword to cut the shadow in front of him in half, the shadow's severed legs suddenly moved, and with the help of the thrusters hidden in each part of its legs, it rushed straight towards the iron man.
Then···
A violent explosion enveloped the iron man.
"Attention!! There are high-energy bombs hidden in various parts of the enemy's body!! Be careful!"
Amidst the billowing smoke, a cloak made of special metal wires swept away the smoke, revealing the iron man himself, unharmed.
The fate of the iron man surprised and delighted Isaac, who noticed the situation here.
What was shocking was the terrifying shadow and the powerful defense displayed by the iron man.
What’s gratifying is that the Iron Man can actually withstand such a close-range chain explosion. Who wouldn’t like such a powerful friendly force?
But unfortunately, ZAFT has not found a way to restore communications so far.
At the same time, the Shadow Fleet also saw the scene where the Shadow, which had activated the killing mode, was forcibly suppressed by the MS troops composed of Iron Men, Iron Soldiers and Iron Generals.
"Impossible! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!! The Shadow in killing mode is able to stand shoulder to shoulder with ACE. How could it be easily crushed by the East Asian MS troops?!"
Shadow Commander couldn't believe what he saw.
But the reality is that, under the leadership of the Iron Soldiers, one Iron Man after another rushed back and forth in the shadows like the heavy cavalry on the battlefields of ancient times, constantly launching rounds of fighting against the shadows.
At this moment, all the people who witnessed this scene thought of the iron cavalry armies of the ancient dynasties in the glorious and long history of the East Asian Republic, who were proud of their military exploits.
